Powys Teaching Health Board has received an application from Crickhowell Group Practice to close their Belmont Branch Surgery in Gilwern.
The main reasons for the application are:
- The forthcoming retirement of four GP partners who are the owners of the branch surgery premises, with lack of viable alternatives for transfer of ownership.
- Challenges across the UK to recruit and retain general medical practitioners (GPs).
The Health Board has therefore implemented its Branch Practice Review Process, which includes:
- Receiving and reviewing the application from the practice.
- Sharing information with patients and wider stakeholders to seek your views.
- Engaging with the Community Health Council, which is the statutory body to represent the interest of patients and the public.
- Conscientious consideration of the feedback we receive, and taking this into account when making a decision on the application at a meeting in public of Powys Teaching Health Board.
This period of engagement is taking place from 10 January 2023 to 6 March 2023.

Mae Bwrdd Iechyd Addysgu Powys wedi cael cais gan Bractis Grŵp Crucywel i gau Meddygfa Belmont yng Ngilwern.
Y prif resymau dros y cais yw’r canlynol:
- Heriau ledled y DU i recriwtio a chadw ymarferwyr meddygol cyffredinol (meddygon teulu).
- Ymddeoliad pedwar partner meddyg teulu sy’n berchnogion safle’r feddygfa, gyda diffyg dewisiadau amgen hyfyw ar gyfer trosglwyddo perchnogaeth.
Felly, mae’r Bwrdd Iechyd wedi gweithredu ei Broses Adolygu Practis, sy’n cynnwys:
- Adolygu’r cais gan y practis.
- Rhannu gwybodaeth â chleifion a rhanddeiliaid ehangach i geisio eich barn.
- Ymgysylltu â’r Cyngor Iechyd Cymunedol, sef y corff statudol i gynrychioli diddordeb cleifion a’r cyhoedd.
- Ystyried yr adborth a gawn, ac ystyried hwn wrth wneud penderfyniad ynghylch y cais mewn cyfarfod cyhoeddus gan Fwrdd Iechyd Addysgu Powys.
Cynhelir y cyfnod hwn o ymgysylltu rhwng 10 Ionawr 2023 a 6 Mawrth 2023.
